[1000mp] While tuningup/down the band hearing blobs FT1000MP

[Cecil Acuff]

Ok if it's not a tone type of noise that rules out "Birdies"....it's 
probably the slight click one hears as the radio band switches shifting 
between bandpass filters and synthesizers...and that is normal.  Mine sounds 
like a slight interruption of the background noise....you can usually back 
up once you hear this and repeat it at that given location.  That is a 
normal noise...personally I have noticed that on every bandswitching radio I 
have ever owned....it is a little different in each radio but I've noticed 
it on my MP, an Icom R-75 and an Icom 756Pro II.  I'll have to listen for it 
on my "D" model next time but I expect I will find it there as well.

Pete, I'll check serial no later, manufactures . date is 2003 so it's one of 
the later ones I believe.
What Pete N4ZR say's is correct blob is not the correct description it is 
more like a soft click. even the QRG was correct Hi

PS.
The radio will be stripped next week anyway due to the fried MAX232 from the 
CAT, so have her checked for poor groundings ect.
